The overflows are strange and complex fishing machines, hoisted on stilts and almost miraculously supported by a web of cables and axes. They have a stable form, ma, in their essential parts, consist of platforms, composed of planks and beams not completely connected, high pillars of primitives stuck on the seabed or on the rocks, and joined to the nearby shore by slender footbridges.
From the platforms come off the antennas, supporting networks by means of a complicated system of pulleys and funi.I overflows have light architecture, one could say the air, but solid, able to withstand the weight of the robust fishing net and the stresses of marine storms. I do not have a stable architectural element, but dynamic, in constant relationship with the forces of nature, whereby their ethereal structures interact continuously, because every storm will lose more or less important pieces, e, After every storm, need adjustments and riparazioni.A repair them think "overflowing", depositaries and custodians of an ancient and fascinating art, seemingly primitive and improvised, but in fact it evolved as the most complex engineering techniques. The materials used are extremely varied and were initially linked to local availability: elm, fir and acacia were the most used woods, together with hemp ropes.
Today there is much endeavor even the wires and of the railway sleepers: the important thing is that all the materials used are strictly recycling. Despite the variety of timbers and materials, anyway, overflows are very harmonic and elegant in the wireless gaming complex, ropes and poles that are intertwined, making them similar to "colossal spiders", says the famous poet Gabriele D'Annunzio Abruzzo.
